Guest guest Posted July 7, 2005 Report Share Posted July 7, 2005 PETA India Kids Superstar:Jyoti www.petaindiakids.com/superstar.html Thousands of kids all over the planet are joining PETA's army of animal advocates and here is where we shine the spotlight on their hard work. We know you do it because you care about animals, and it is OK to brag a little about the ways you are making the world a better place for our animal friends. Tell us how you help animals, and you could be our featured Superstar of the Month! One morning, when Azam Siddiqui went into his garden, he found two small kittens mewing away. He named them Blacky and Bushy and took them inside to give them something to eat. He noticed that both kittens were in very bad health and had trouble opening their eyes. In fact, Bushy seemed to be blind, as her eyes were so swollen that she could not see at all and needed the assistance of Blacky to find her way around. Azam knew that he could not devote the kind of time the kittens needed to get well, so he gave them for adoption to Jyoti, who is a first-year veterinary student. Jyoti had to hide the kittens in her bathroom, as her father did not want her to bring them in. She took them to the veterinarian immediately and was told that both the kittens had very bad conjunctivitis and were very sick with worms. She started their treatment diligently. They were so small that they could not eat on their own, and Jyoti had to feed them with a syringe. This was very hard, as cats are difficult animals to handle, but she persevered. Unfortunately, Blacky did not survive, even though everyone tried very hard to save her, but Bushy got better, and today she has recovered completely from her eye infection and is very naughty. Now, she is no longer kept hidden in the bathroom ?she's the constant companion of Jyoti's father, who is retired and so is at home all day! Jyoti is truly a superstar for her animal friends! Now, how about you? Are you a superstar for animals? Do you know someone who is? We want to know! E-mail PETAKids and nominate a PETA India superstar today.
